I have a list manager for Schedule postings

In this list manager the first option is to select what "Location" the schedule posting is for.

I have another list manager for the "Locations" within my cms so Im using a drop down list pulling in from this manager.

Is there a way to filter on certain pages to only show the schedule postings for the location that is selected?

Heres the locations page:
http://apexfinal.highviews.co.cc/locations.php

When you select a location you will see the Schedule... but right nw its showing all listings

Hi s2smedia,

Yes, you can hardcode that in the "where" option in the viewer page code or specify it in the url like this:

http://apexfinal.highviews.co.cc/locations.php?location=cary,+nc

Note that you'll need to have the same values for locations. Currently you have "Cary" and "Cary, NC".

You can learn more about the automated searching here: http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/cmsbuilder/viewer_search.html

Hope that helps!

Well how would you like the filtering to work?

If the locations are a pulldown with the values pulled from another section can't you just have one entry for Cary, NC?

Ok Ill try to go step by step on how the process works

1. Add a new Location (there is a tab in CMS called locations... multi record manager)

2. Schedule a Session for that location... go to Schedule tab in CMS (multi record manager)
the first field is a list.. that pulls in all locations that have been created.
You would first select the location you are creating a "session date" in the schedule for... then you chose the date, time etc..

Now when you go to that location page.. there is a box thats called Session Schedule... I only want the sessions scheduled for that particular location.

Let me know if that makes sense..

Thanks!

<?php if ($record['futsal_location'] != $winter_academy_locationsRecord['location']) { continue; } ?>
